Voted! Some scenarios are just pure luck and a little annoying to see when they pop up on Arena (yes I'm looking at you Tiger Tanks!)

Quick question to the mind hive on the usage of General Advance w/ US Marine Corps Command rules in Pacific Theater. The way I read that card (and the way I have always played that card) is the US player can command 2 units per section plus 1 additional unit total across any of the three sections. ...

Montelimar - one of the most exciting scenarios from the base game! One of the key things I like about this scenario is that both players have to make tough choices - you will have to make gambles throughout, but especially at the end when you can make a swift move to get 2-3 medals to close out the...

Operation Cobra - a fun little map with a good variety of terrain and cover. While there are set opening moves with this map, the dispersion of cards and dice makes for an interesting match with every playthrough. US Strategy: there is really one basic opening move that needs to be done and that is ...

This is admittedly one of my weaker maps as I don't have a very coherent strategy on either side other than bombs away with the German Artillery and try to get the US armor off the beach and make a push inland. It's quite a hard task for the US player to win here as you'll waste a lot of movement ge...

Pointe-du-Hoc is a map that has grown on me over time. At first, I couldn't figure out how the Germans could put up much of a fight since they are so scattered on the map and facing overwhelming odds from the US Special Forces units (especially on the German right flank). Somewhere along the way, a ...

I'm quite fond of this scenario as the French Resistance makes for a powerful infantry unit with the ability to move into covered terrain and still fight. They fall behind Finnish Ski Troops in my opinion in terms of power (with the only caveat being that the Finnish Ski Troops can't target units 3 ...
